“The ADN Jurista Programme is an initiative of great value, both for students and for the institutions involved.
It offers students the opportunity to act, think and engage in a genuinely practical context, while giving participating organisations the chance to assess the quality of these future professionals and consider their potential for future integration.
Without a doubt, it is a programme that deserves to be recognised as a major milestone in a Law student’s academic journey.”

“The ADN Jurista has proved to be an outstanding programme, not only for the academic development of its students but also for their integration into the professional world.
In recent years, we’ve had the privilege of welcoming highly talented students who embrace every challenge with responsibility and commitment, applying their solid legal knowledge to real-world situations.

Beyond professional guidance in a real work environment, we believe this programme plays a crucial role in accelerating students’ entry into professional life, a contribution of inestimable value shared by both the Faculty and employers.”

“The ADN Jurista Programme, developed by Universidade Católica Portuguesa, stands out as an innovative and distinctive initiative.
By promoting the full development of students, it helps shape them into more complete jurists.
Each year, when Morais Leitão welcomes the winners of the ADN Merit Internship, we see not only their technical excellence but also their sensitivity, balance, sense of teamwork and good judgement, as well as their readiness to integrate smoothly into a professional environment.
We congratulate Universidade Católica Portuguesa and reaffirm Morais Leitão’s commitment and pleasure in continuing to be part of this programme.”

“The merits of this programme are self-evident.
It exposes students, and future professionals, to real-world scenarios they would otherwise only encounter later in their careers, equipping them with truly distinctive competences rarely covered in traditional Law degrees.
The breadth and depth of the ADN Jurista Programme enable the development of not only more complete jurists but also more conscious and socially responsible citizens, qualities that become evident from the very first step into the job market.”
